Cinematographic writing in Les Grandes Blondes by Jean Echenoz - Haidar Benmoumen - Bog

This Master's thesis is part of a comparative aesthetics study of cinematographic techniques in the novel Les Grandes Blondes by French writer Jean Echenoz. The main aim of this study is to explore the exchanges between the two media, novel and film, in the verbal material or "materiality of semiotic treatment" of the Echenozian text, using an intersemiotic approach. The aim is to identify, decipher and analyze cinematographic processes as an object of meaning and a sui generis textual property. The problematic underlying this study is as follows: How does Jean Echenoz's Les Grandes Blondes verbalize cinematographic aesthetics on a thematic and structural level?
